How to retrieve the document template (DRWDOT) and basemaps (SLDDRT)

2D plans Layout
1

Good evening

Here is  my motherboard being ready to give up the ghost I saved everything before the delivery of a new machine it included the SLDREG,

But I didn't think to save my templates (DRWDOT) and basemaps (SLDDRT).

Question is that from my last saved plans made  with the old machine, I can recover the SLDDRT plan bases.

When I load the old plans everything seems ok except that the background has become horizon blue (like in 14). The cartouche etc. seems intact.

Can you confirm that if I open the basemap and save under another name, it won't make a mess of my old plans.

Thank you

Normally no problems.

SW "wraps" the model and basemap after saving. So the Drawings no longer depend on the template or the basemaps present on the workstation. Changes made to  the initial models or basemaps do not retroactively affect the work done on them.

I regularly retrieve a model or basemap from a drawing.

For the template, simply delete all drawing views and save as Templates (drwdot). 

For basemaps, directly save by File/Save basemap.

For the color "blue", I don't know, I've never seen that.

Hello

Totally agree with Aliende for the templates and backgrounds, for the color check in system option / Colors / Drawings, paper color if you don't have a weird color, this one is not embedded with the background plan but is a system color.

Kind regards
